Grave Mercy by R.L. LaFevers
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Aside from some language that didn’t quite scan for me (the use of the word “scoot” specifically; this book is set in the 1400s and that word wasn’t around until the 1700s), I really, really enjoyed this epic mingling of high fantasy and historical fiction. The romance was close to but not quite on par with the slow burn romances of Robin McKinley, but you can still definitely hand this one to fans of the Blue Sword and The Hero and the Crown.
